    % FEB 7 ^ LAS VEGAS MORNING TRIBUNE att­ar ge ad 1a- ;a- de re jad a 9 ad ii- 3S. a ng tig R H Swimming Poo! Bonds Slated Approval Toda Protests, if any, in opposition to a bond issue for construction of new swimming pools in Las Vegas, will be heard by city com­missioners today in their formal meeting set for 2 o’clock in the council chambers of the War Memorial building. Under the provisions of the charter, the bond issue, which has been advertised for the past sever­al weeks, -will automatically be authorized unless objection is made by 10 per cent of the regist­ered voters in the last election. Should Such opposition be pre­sented, the bond issue may then be voted upon in the next city 1 election. ' Swimming pools planned for construction this year include a regulation pool and bath house facilities at the civic center on the Westside, and tournament-size pool and bath houses, with pos­sible addition of a teen-age rec­reation center, at the north end of the city park. According to the city plan, con­struction of the pool will have no effect upon Helldorado and other rodeos. There will be a distance of one city block between the back of the bath houses and the front of the grandstand, which is held to. be ample for all wild west cele­brations. The Helldorado itself, is not in jeopardy, either this or any" other year by such construction, planning engineers maintain. __.rnaoii sculpture, ------- Bryan Bunker Going to Utah The industrial development of the west, with particular reference to maintenance of the steel-pro­ducing facilities at Geneva, Utah, and Fontana, Calif., will be studi­ed at a two-day council to be held in Salt Lake'City Feb. 12 and 13, and Bryan Bunker, vice president of the chamber of commerce, has been delegated to represent south­ern Nevada’s interests in the con­ference.
